Notes This poem notes the vast amount of people killed by AIDS over the years. The speaker of the poem condemns the Catholic church's refusal to sanction condoms amongst its believers, which would help to prevent the spread of the disease. A large section of this poem is in French, and the Irish section is possibly a loose translation of it, or vice-versa.
